Dear ALL, Please let me know if Ag. Value is Say Rs. 1.25 Crore and S.Duty Ready Reckoner Value is Say Rs. 1.80 Cr. In the above case, after abatement we need to pay service tax on RS. 1.25 Crore as and when the customer gives the payments, the amount which customer will pay to the builder eventually.

In other words i should not be paying on Rs. 1.80 CR which is just the Ready reckoner Value.

Please reply if my understanding is correct.
